Hi Amy,
Cartica's portfolio exclusively consists of emerging markets companies, almost all of which are characterized as under defined control. The majority shareholders are typically in a good position to ensure that management does not pervert the compensation-setting scheme. Accordingly, excessive or badly misaligned compensation is rarely, if ever, a problem we face. We have, however, had issues with management whose compensation was insufficiently sensitive to the long-term share performance. In such cases, we have taken the issue up with the majority shareholders, rather than the compensation committees. Might as well go to the top!
Mike

Subject: [ciidiscussion] Voting against compensation committee directors
CII staff seeks a better understanding of what drives members' votes and what trends to anticipate for the 2014 proxy season. With that in mind: Do you expect in 2014 to withhold/vote against more compensation committee directors at companies that had poor say-on-pay results in one or more years in the past? And if so, why?
Thanks very much!
Amy
